A blog that follows issues of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) and observations on Boston life in general. Now all night long Charlie rides through the tunnels crying "What will become of me? How can I afford to see My sister in Chelsea Or my cousin in Roxbury?"

New Charles station opened Saturday 2/17 (updated)
UPDATE 10:45 PM elevators and escalators are working at Charles/MGH
The new Charles/MGH station opened on Saturday, February 17. When I passed through it around 11:45 this morning, the new lobby was open. Plywood boards blocked off the old temporary stairs to the platforms.
I did not get on or off at this station today, so i can't yet report whether all the Charlie gates have been installed, or whether all of the elevators and escalators were operating.
